Did you (or someone else) has a solution for this? I did not find the solution, but I did some experiments and tried watching the recorded mp4 video file directly in Firefox by opening it in a separate tab (not in Zoneminder). The built-in Firefox video player behaved in the same way - total ...

Zoneminder 1.36.24 (PPA), Ubuntu Server 22.04, Nginx. When the event playback starts the total event duration shown by the player is less than the event length. As the playback continues the total duration shown by the player will increase, the playback bar's length will re-adjust and at some point ...

What have you got against polkit? Dependencies. It pulls spidermonkey, rust and llvm which otherwise would not be installed on this particular system. And because that system runs a compiled Linux distribution, I would like to avoid compiling these dependencies. May I ask what exactly would break ...

I have Zoneminder 1.33 installed on a Linux box.

Among other dependencies there is a polkit package.

Why does Zoneminder need it?

Is there a particular aspect of Zoneminder's operation that requires it?

Can it work without polkit?

There is known issue that affects Firefox users when they view Montage page. Firefox imposes limit of how many simultaneous connections can be established per server.

There are some missing auth= in the various status urls.

Thanks a lot. With this hint I was able to figure out that ZM_AUTH_HASH_LOGINS config option was not set. This was causing the auth_hash global variable to be not declared and as result - auth= was not being sent in queries.

I think you need to try out our current master builds. There are some missing auth= in the various status urls.

I downloaded the master two days ago. Was there some fix for this since then?

I will try anyway.

You need a Server entry under options -> Servers for example.com I do have it. Just to be sure, I deleted and created it again. It does not affect the issue. However, I do not know whether or not this is important, but all servers show status "Unknown", there is no CpuLoad data, Free/Total memory ...
